7-eleven

The guys who work here are always very nice and in a good mood. The store is always clean and stocked I don't have to worry about them not having what I went for. And having the Amazon locker outside is another huge convenience. It may be an older building that could use an update but the employees take pride in their store and it shows.

Owner is a hard working dude. Always nice and patient with all, event he RIF-RAF that stumbles in. I have seen the staff toss in one of there own dollars to get to the total for a visibly homeless or low income person, turn around and be rough and tumble with someone and a fake ID. The owner attempts to keep his family in there working, one of the young guys has a great life story to tell. Adoption out of Iraq into the US, as a young boy. He Got the grades but no money, now slowly he is working through getting his degree. Meanwhile his citizenship was being tossed around, and after the Presidential change was put on hold by executive order. By a chance he was a lucky one and got in just under the wire, and is now a full US citizen. Congrats Bro! Take the time to have a conversation with a stranger you never know what you can learn from someone. Maybe your problems are not so bad, Maybe you have some advice that can help someone. You never know.
